THE COST OF MIGRANTS IN EUROPE

The costs of accommodating migrants in Germany is much higher than sending them back to their countries leading to the push to get many to return home voluntarily. The IFO institute calculated that residence and care costs alone for migrants total 21 billion euros for the German taxpayer.
Estimated costs of integration and training run the numbers even higher with some reports that countries like Sweden will see a cost of 43 billion pounds and others debunking the idea that migrants will be a boon to the economy as many politicians had promised at the beginning of the crisis.
